Compass reaches settlement in Murch TCPA case

7 hours ago 4

Compass has settled the Murch Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) lawsuit filed against it last June. On Monday, plaintiff Jessica Murch filed a notice of settlement with the court. 

No details of the settlement were disclosed in the one-page filing.

The TCPA suit was originally filed in mid-June of last year by plaintiff Jessica Murch against Compass, Compass Washington and two Compass agents Rachel Olson and Ansel Sanger in U.S. District Court in Portland, Oregon.

According to the complaint, Murch’s phone number was listed on the Do Not Call Registry for more than 31 days prior to the first of several calls at issue. Additionally, the filing notes that the plaintiff has never been a customer of Compass, nor has she ever consented to receive calls or text messages from the company. Despite this, in mid-August 2024, Murch claims she received four calls from Olson asking if she was interested in selling her house. 

In the complaint Murch claims that, despite telling Olson and Compass to only communicate with her via email, she continued to receive these unwanted calls through at least early June of 2025. The lawsuit was seeking class action status.

Compass had filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit in May. The firm said it did not wish to comment on the settlement.
